Chinese Savory Pancakes

Amber would like to thank her aunt, Mrs. C. T. Lu, for teaching her how to make these pancakes more than twenty years ago.

Ingredients

6 tbsp. of flour
1 large egg
1/3 cup of cold water
1 green onion
1 tsp. of cooking oil
salt and pepper

Steps

1. Remove both ends of the green onion. Wash and chop it.
2. Mix the first three ingredients together until a smooth batter is formed. Break all lumps of flour apart.
3. Add the chopped green onion, salt, and pepper to the batter and mix well.
4. Heat the oil in a non-stick skillet until hot. Pour the batter onto the skillet.
5. Move the skillet to spread the batter to a desired size and thickness. Pan-fry the batter until it can be easily lifted along the edge.
6. Flip the pancake to cook the other side until the pancake is done.
7. Cut the pancake into wedges and serve.

This is one of the ways people in northern China get their carbohydrates. Serving these pancakes is a good alternative to serving steamed rice.
